We provide <a href="https://github.com/open-oni/sample-data" rel="nofollow">small sample batches</a> for testing and <a href="https://github.com/open-oni/open-oni/wiki/Create-Your-Own-Batch" rel="nofollow" >documentation on how to create a batch</a>. The Library of Congress also provides <a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/batches/">Chronicling America newspapers as batches</a>. </p> <p> Open ONI does not currently provide tools to create batches, but the <a href="grant2022-2025">University of Oregon and University of Nebraska-Lincoln were awarded a National Endowment for the Humanities grant</a> to develop software and features to assist with batch creation, enable issue editing, and update the Open ONI front end framework alongside an accessibility / user experience audit. </p> <p> To evaluate the software, we recommend downloading the <a href="https://github.com/open-oni/open-oni/releases" rel="nofollow">latest Open ONI release</a> and following <a href="https://github.com/open-oni/open-oni/tree/main/docs#installation-and-updating" rel="nofollow">installation documentation</a>.

Developers cannot be expected to provide extensive one-on-one support. </p> <p> We are glad to provide support specifically related to Open ONI, but anyone wanting to work with Open ONI should begin with some foundational knowledge of Linux, Docker, Apache, Python, Django, Solr, MariaDB/MySQL, and IIIF. There are other resources and communities better suited to aid in getting started and familiar with those technologies, so general assistance with them falls outside the scope of what to expect Open ONI developers to provide. </p> <p> We ask that bugs and feature requests be submitted to <a href="https://github.com/open-oni/open-oni/issues" rel="nofollow">Open ONI on GitHub</a>. Please confine other questions and conversation about Open ONI development and use to <a href="https://join.slack.com/t/open-oni/shared_invite/enQtMzg5MDg5NjU5MDU2LTA4MmViOTkxZDliZWZmM2FlMGU5ODZjNDU0OWQxYzIzMTY1YmFlMWEzZDFkNDNjZmYxYzUyMmMwZjlkMjU1MGE" rel="nofollow">Open ONI's Slack</a>.
